Sunhawk 02/10/20 10:42:51 AM #1:	She looked like she was anywhere between about 40 and 50, it's hard to tell. I didn't know what to think of this. The longest I've worked a single job (which also happened to be a supermarket, but different brand) was 3 years, and that seemed like a long time to spend at a single company. How can someone spend 23 years at a single job, especially something as very boring / low-paying / bully-oriented as a supermarket job? --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.

Sunhawk 02/10/20 10:47:50 AM #8:	I know various people would come into this topic and attack me. I wasn't particularly attacking her for working THAT kind of job, but rather staying at ANY job for that long. How can you not get bored? Miserable? Fed up?

I don't think there's anything wrong with working in the same CAREER filed for decades, I'm talking about working at the same job. There's a big difference. Plus, her job wasn't a career.
